ABH is a one colour screenprint hand pulled onto a vintage c.1898 average temperature map of the UK.

This limited edition 1 of 1 is part of the Climate Change Series, making a subtle political statement on rising global temperatures combined with the unusual amount of 'heatwaves' experienced in the UK in 2020.

The piece also pokes fun at British culture, with many people longing for heat throughout the year and complaining about the British weather, only to complain that it is 'too bloody hot' when a heatwave arrives. It was noted that with the presence of so many heatwaves in 2020, the population became fed up of them.

While jovial on the surface, the print has a serious underlying message in wanting its viewer to ask the question - why are we seeing an increase in extreme weather both in the UK and globally?

H.W.

*Please note - printed onto vintage map which will show signs of wear and tear due to age (e.g. small tears, tape & pen markings). Hopefully you agree this adds to its uniqueness.*
